- **Event Description**: Context. Conspiracy. Consequence. Experience a unique retelling of one of the most dramatic events in British history- in the city where it all began. Set against the turbulent backdrop of post- reformation York, The Gunpowder Plot: York’s Untold Story takes visitors beyond the legend of Guy Fawkes to explore the events surrounding 5th November 1605.  Not only does the exhibition take place in the city that many key figures called home, but the story is brought to life within the walls of the Bar Convent, established in the shadows of the plot when the Catholic faith was still illegal. On display are incredible artefacts including the poignant cross of Edward Oldcorne who was hanged, drawn and quartered in the aftermath of the plot alongside items linked to Margaret Clitherow, whose brutal death is said to have been a pivotal catalyst for the plotters. Through rare objects, brand-new interpretation and human storytelling, discover how the plot echoed across the country, left its mark on York, and shaped the lives of the courageous women who founded this remarkable house in its wake. Book tickets to our exhibition - www.barconvent.co.ukThe exhibition will be accompanied by a programme of special events and a new citywide trail.
